3.2.2. Maintenance schedule
General
The robot must be maintained regularly to ensure proper function. The maintenance activities
and intervals are specified in the table below.
Non-predictable situations also give rise to inspections of the robot. Any damages must be
attended to immediately!
The inspection intervals do not specify the life of each component.
Maintenance schedule
The table below specifies the required maintenance activities and intervals:
1. A regular interval implies that the activity is to be performed regularly, but the actual
interval may not be specified by the robot manufacturer. The interval depends on the
operation cycle of the robot, its working environment and movement pattern.
Generally, the more contaminated environment, the closer the intervals. The more
demanding movement pattern (sharper bending cable harness), the closer the intervals.
2. The battery is used as a back-up when the robot system is switched off. Therefore, the
life of a lithium battery depends on how frequently the power to the system is switched
off and also if the environment temperature is higher than recommended operating
temperature. The life varies from 12 - 36 mths, depending on current conditions. An
alert is given on the TPU or the FlexPendant when the battery is nearly discharged and
it must then be replaced within a month.
